Description

Sung Eun Kim and co-authors present a 2026 validation study of a Korean questionnaire for people with hemophilia. Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder that damages joints and limits daily life. The Haemophilia Activities List asks patients how well they manage everyday tasks, but it needed a tested Korean version.

Translators converted the questionnaire into Korean and back again, following standard rules. Eighty-seven adults with hemophilia then completed it plus two other health surveys. Answers were highly consistent within the questionnaire and stable when patients retook it later. Scores also lined up strongly with the other surveys, as expected. The authors conclude the Korean version is reliable and fits Korean culture, ready for use in clinics and research.
